Una nota de Antonio GRACIANI VÁZQUEZ a Ramón GRACIANI RUIZ nota que Flavio era "natural de Vilabona, provincia de Lucca (Italia)." Villabuona es parte de Pescaglia, comunidad donde se registró su bautismo; también existe una copia del acto de bautismo en la iglesia de Villabuona.

According to a 1978 note from Antonio GRACIANI VÁZQUEZ to Ramón GRACIANI RUIZ, Flavio was born in "Vilabona, provincia de Lucca (Italia)".  His baptismal certificate is indeed found in the church of Villabuona.

Antonio GRACIANI VÁZQUEZ nota que "se fueron a Sevilla para construir la estación de los FF. CC. Andaluces, muriendo durante la construcción el año 5." According to Antonio GRACIANI VÁZQUEZ the family went to Seville to construct the railroad station, and Francisco died during the construction.  ¨Murió de sarcoma de cuello en calle Carne 7 Parroquia de San Nicolás.¨

His death was announced in the Seville newspaper <i>El Liberal</i> of 6 Oct. 1905 in which it refers to his "viuda, hijos, hijos políticos, nietos, hermanoS, hermanos políticos, y demas parientes y afectos." This would indicate that more than one brother was alive at the time (we know Domingo was alive).  The reference to "hijos políticos," however leads us to wonder -- Francisco had only "hermanas políticas."
